As defined in IPC-D-50, PWB refers to a board that has nothing but
connecting lands etched
into it. PCB refers to a board that has active circuitry, capacitors,
resistors, etc..., etched into
it. In most conversations and communications such as this, PCB is used
instead of PWB.

Subject: PWB and PCB???
Is there a difference between a
PWB - Printed Wiring board and
PCB - Printed Circuit Board
in the industry?
Is it safe to assume (uh-oh) the PWB is the bare board and
the PCB is the PCB w/components, i.e. a PCB assembly?
Does anyone out there make a strict division between the two this way?
